HALL Victoria Uooth-Clibborn Demurest, the evangelist holding forth at the armory faced a splendid audience yes terday afternoon and evening. The subject of the sermon wat "The GrentoHt Thin? in tbj World" and fhe asked the audience to tell her what it was. They replied "Love" and she then wanted to know where the text for the sermon could be found and they said Kith chap, of Jut Corinthians. It was during the delivery of the sermon that she used the story to the effect that a certain preacher had delivered a wonderful sermon one Sunday morning and going home to ; limner had round a ."cinder in the soup. This so nettled him that he lost his temper and made everybody miserable about his homp cook, wife and children forgetting the teaching of the UUh chapter. In thin conniption one is reminded of the 12th chap, of Hebrews, rthj verse: "Look ujt diligently lest any man foil of the grace of God; lpst I any root of bitterness springing up ' trouble you. and threeby many he defiled." Tho grnf-e of God in wif ficient. but we fail of the grace. It was a wonderful sermon nnd the speaker had the closest of attention. Ilev. Weatherhorn, pastor of the Boptlst church at Springfield, offer ed the opening prayer. One of the best solos yet rendered by Agnew Deinarest was heard at the afternoon session. The words "Love Won on Calvary" were very appropriate for the sermon. It was announced that there would be services tonight, but not on Tues day night beceuKe of the militia tak ing it over on Tuesday night for reg ular drill.' Wednesday night will be a sermon for men only and the evangelist said she would be the only woman present, that she didn't want any women around on that night. So the women will not have another service to at teud from tonight until Thursday night.
